How many times have we seen videos of "suspects" (i.e., protestors) who are wrestled to the ground and cuffed, only to have an officer taze them repeatedly?

How many times have we seen videos of "suspects" (i.e., protestors) who are being beaten and tazed, told to "stop resisting" as if we have the ability to lie still and silent while being tazed and beaten. It's not physically or humanely possible.

It seems some cops like to torture as a punishment for questioning or challenging their authority.
